I just won a unopened Tough Willow tiki on ebay, for just 72 USD(plus 40USD in shipping to Sweden).

Great price. But this now means that I'm even more broke than before(I bought it with credit card) so no more ebay for me until November. Maybe a couple of Buffy/Angel comics, but otherwise, nope. I need to save up for a Spike Premium Format Statue Exclusive anyway.

So here I show you a few great Buffy/Angel auctions that I wish I could bid on, in case any of you are looking for a bargain.

It's two comic pages by Franco Urru, from Angel After the fall(issue 17, page 5) and Spike After the fall(issue 3, page 19). Although technically the AATF art if just one panel from page 5(Urru didn't draw the entire page on the same paper/board-thing)

This is a excerpt from the episode Intervention. The episode where Spike got a Buffybot to "play checkers" with, and where Giles' take Buffy out to the desert so she can talk to a spirit guide.According to the script, Giles' Swahili chant during the ritual is translated as follows; "... that which I am pledged to guard and to guide, I hand over to you. Lead her to a place of safety and learning. Give her that which she needs. Show her the path..."My source is The watcher's guide, vol 3.

CORDELIA: Nothing, you're right. That's dull, generic, real-life hair. Nobody's gonna be threatened by that hair. Take a step to the right... cock your head a little, chin up... boy, this could take a lot of makeup.

This was a interesting insight to a vampires mind. In one panel May has sex with Jacob, not asking permission before getting started, in the next Jacob thinks about killing his mom and finally he says that drunk drivers kill people, not vamps. Not sure if Jacob's morals went to hell before or after he died, but it seems to be a common theme with vampires. They embrace the evil so quickly, sometimes even forgetting what humans call right and wrong. They think evil if their birthright and that they're "people" too. Like with Harmony; Still wanting to be friends with Cordy, even tough she tried to kill her.

The last page was beautiful, both artwise and character-wise. I read the last lines as Jacob, as he said, daring to want more, to finally get Alex, to dare to feel.

Vampires aren't just monsters. They're part human too, and a few of them might even be decent people(if they have access to willing-to-be-feed-on people).

That's one of the things I love about Buffy. It's not always white and black.

What is this blog about?

I'm Skytteflickan88 and this is my a Buffy/Angel-blog. I will post about Buffy stuff (interesting articles, funny interviews, beautiful fan art and some of my own thoughts and art about Buffy & Angel).

The adult stuff, that you were warned about before entering the site, is for example vids that show sexual scenes (for example Spike&Buffy sex scenes), dirty manips and the occasional crude joke.

Spoilers for comics, movies, etc etc, will be marked/told, so you don't need to be afraid of being suddenly spoiled (so don't skim the posts in case you're afraid of spoilers).

[My own deeper articles and analyzes about characters, episodes, etcetc, will be marked with MY THOUGHTS]

I'm kind of a ebay-holic and I collect way more Buffy stuff than I can afford, so many blog posts will be about collectibles.
